Yea I was trying to use Google Spreadsheet, getting annoyed with the JSONP and the goofy way they returned their JSON, so figured I'd just wrap it in something easier to use... What "availability issues" did you run into? I haven't noticed any with my sheets yet

I run a cache in front of mine. It is usually available, but can be slow.

Just the spreadsheet data being intermittently down, and of course, impossible to troubleshoot. We ran processes against it fairly often, and even had it proxied to some mobile devices.
